Centurion acquires London site for $75m

The firm plans to develop a 225-bed student accommodation.

Centurion Overseas Investments acquired a site at William Road in London for £43.46m ($75m) for the development of a 225-bed purpose-built student accommodation (PSBA).

The acquisition of the property, which comprises Willian Road 17-33 and 35-37, is in line with Centurion Corp. Limited’s strategy of adding student accommodations in the United Kingdom.

Lot 35-37 is proposed to be redeveloped into a 225-bed PBSA with a mix of studio units and en suite cluster accommodation.

The building will comprise a basement, ground floor, and 14 upper levels, and will include approximately 341 square metres of communal amenity space for residents, Centurion said.

Meanwhile, lot 17-33 William Road is intended to be refurbished to provide 1,090 square metres of office space.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
